From chef, athlete, and performance coach Dan Churchill, a cutting-edge cookbook filled with protein-packed, healthy recipes for fueling up, feeling right, and living like a legend.

We are not all super athletes, but we all perform in one way or another, every single day. Whether we’re training for a marathon, smashing that big presentation, or chasing after kids, we need energy and focus for a healthy mind and body. To be our best, we need to feel our best, and what we eat makes the difference.

Dan Churchill, The Healthy Chef, has spent more than a decade coaching high performers—everyone from professional hockey greats to famously fit celebrities like Chris Hemsworth or Lindsay Vonn to 100-mile runners—to be “legendary eaters.” Churchill’s philosophy and methods are simple—ditch the complicated science of performance nutrition and focus on five fundamental values: Eat good. Eat easy. Eat more. Eat deliberately. Eat special.

Written in his fun and friendly voice, Eat Like a Legend provides recipes for food you can actually cook—food that’s packed with fiber, nutrients, and other good stuff calibrated to enhance focus, determination, gut health, muscle mass, and endurance, no matter what you do. In this lifestyle cookbook, Churchill gathers the best of the best food with simple, step-by-step instructions—the tastiest dishes in his repertoire that will provide the energy you need to perform in your daily life, including:

• Acai Bowls (That Are Actually Good For You)
• Chicken Alfredo You Can Eat Every Day
• Crispy Sticky Salmon on Sesame Greens
• One-Skillet Apple Pie
• Sexy Tofu Scramble with Avo-Dill Salsa
• Legendary Baked Ziti with a Kale Pesto
• Game-Day (and Work-Day) Shrimp Tikka Masala
• Pad Thai in a Flash with Sunny-Side Up Eggs
• Gooiest Brownies Ever (You’ll Never Guess How)

Every once in a while, restaurant patrons are offered a simple menu choice: Would you like that with white or brown rice? And all too often, the brown rice that appears on the plate, while healthful, is far from a culinary treat. But brown rice can be as tempting as it is beneficial. To prove the point, best-selling cookbook author Wendy Esko has put together a spectacular collection of her finest rice recipes in" The Big Beautiful Brown Rice Cookbook." Wendy first shows you the many ways in which you can correctly cook brown rice methods that bring out this food s mild nutty flavor and enticingly robust texture. She then provides over one hundred easy-to-follow kitchen-tested recipes. As Wendy demonstrates, this wonderful food doesn t have to be relegated to the side of the dish, but can be a culinary star. That s why her collection includes dishes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And from porridges and waffles to paella and vegetable sushi, all are winners.

If you ever thought that brown rice was dull, you re in for a treat. Let "The Big Beautiful Brown Rice Cookbook" help you make this wholesome grain a welcome addition to your meals."
